Really loved staying at this hotel. We were given a room in a bungalow on the grounds which was very private and quite looking onto a garden, I really loved the fact that it had its own private kitchen and the staff were very helpful in providing things that ran out. Would definately stay there again.

Lots of negatives: bathroom is musky smelly, doors need replacing, windows don’t shut properly, no air conditioning(!) Positives: 15 minute walk to tourist district, free parking, good water pressure, friendly staff. I would not recommend to stay here. I was sold by the well-staged pictures. Don’t be fooled.

I stayed in room 805 and the carpet was filthy. The room had a musky smell, I had to wedge the window open with a cup to let fresh air into the room and then spray it with deodorant. It appears that the building may at one time been a house which has been converted into accommodation but not very well I would however, mention that the staff were fine and the breakfast okay.
